If you
do not naturally have all those characteristics, then do not despair. Each of
them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use medication and
visualization techniques to initiate your vision, and they can certainly be
learned both for that purpose and for each step you take to reach your goals.
Simply visualize your desired goals, that of being a star student, a champion
of doing what is right, and see yourself working hard to become outstanding,
and your dreams and vision will materialize as you peruse these
objectives. Setting goals and objectives
can be a personal or business technique that can be learnt. You can develop inner
strength to succeed if you apply yourself by doing just that; that will enable
you to recover from setbacks more easily.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students
Part 12
What is important to you is that you,
as you start to reach milestones in your ambitions, you appreciate your own
achievements. It is a boost, of course, if others appreciate what you have done
too, but appreciating yourself will strengthen your self-belief, and reinforce
your determination to succeed. Some of the key characteristics you will find in
those who are successful are perseverance, prepared to research, plan and work
hard, practice a lot even when things do not seem to be going so well, and an ability
to recover and learn from setback. At the outset of whatever it is you are trying to succeed in, a strong
vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievable targets can
all play an important role.

·
They prefer tasks with some degree of difficulty and novelty,
which stimulate their learning skills.
·
They don’t apply the simple criteria of success-fail to their learning.
Remember, they are focused into the learning process.
·
They know how to handle groups.
·
Finally, they work with passion.
Other chief habit is
that of asking questions. We have to establish hypothesis and set concrete, realistic
goals. After reading any text we have to ask several different questions
related to its content, in order to verify if we have completely understood the
text. It’s also important to try to relate such text and others area of our
knowledge. Again, linking ideas and concepts is a habit of highly successful
students. So, link

They concentrate on the process of solving the task and
understanding the involved ideas. Of course we are interested in getting good
results, but the process is more important. A result is a very brief moment of
life, while learning to develop process is a skill that will last for the whole
life.
·
They interpret and analyze errors as a way of increasing their learning,
i.e., they try to learn from their mistakes. This way, they see errors and
failures as opportunities.
·
They look for the required information in several channels
(books, journals, newspapers, experts, internet, and so on.)
·
They consult experts and teachers frequently. This action
provides a new perspective about the studied topics.

Everyone
wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do we have
to go out and search for those keys, or do we have those potentials already within
ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into
two aspects—life within and life without; internal life and external life—and we
can see that these aspects are of equal importance. Even if we have renounced
the world, gone far away from civilization, and live in the wilderness doing
nothing but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to see
that we eat, do our ablutions, and perform our practices on time. So life in
the external world is as important as life in the internal world.

If you
prefer to play videogames, then remember that making any game requires to
prepare a detailed script including history, characters, goals and relations. Therefore,
you could start writing down the script for your “dream game”. On the other
side, you could imagine how the novel you are reading could be transformed into
a videogame (start out by thinking which gaming genre fits the novel better:
role-playing, adventure, action, and so on.) the basic idea is to find match
points and links between our affections and our chores. And such links there
always exist. Remember, to link ideas and concepts is the most important habit
for successful students.
Successful
students also exhibit other particular traits we should internalize:

the importance of taking responsility
“The importance of taking personal responsibility”
Having responsibility
is one of the most important traits for a person to have. If you are not
responsible nobody will ever trust you with things of theirs. So if you ever
want to borrow anyone’s stuff no matter who they are you have to be responsible
because before anyone actually lets you borrow there stuff they will first
check to see if you are responsible enough to be able to take care of their
stuff because they waste their own money on their thing they don’t want someone
to just come along and lose or break there things that they worked hard to get
or worked hard to earn money for. Anyone can be responsible as long as they are
always choosing the right no matter how hard it is to choose the right. Being responsible
is part of choosing the right because if you are being responsible you are
choosing the right. You can never be to responsible in life because the
slightest slip can make you lose your stuff and never get your things back. I
personally try to always be responsible with my things that I earn by working
for the money or getting good grades. I am even more responsible with other
people’s stuff especially because I didn’t work for and I didn’t buy it so I don’t
want to ruin someone else s things and make them regret they lend me something.
So I try my best to be responsible.
